It would appear that the latest "Specially Elected" Congressman is against Free-Trade. John Tusani posted this blurb on the Working Life Site.
"One of the very under-the-radar things that happened when the Democrats took the seat in Mississippi was that the newly-elected Congressman, Travis Childers is a "fair trade" proponent and won't support any so-called "free trade" deals:
Childers has signed a pledge not to approve any international trade agreements if he's elected, saying that deals such as NAFTA have made jobs disappear."
For those of you reading this that think this is normal for Democrats think again. He was elected in one of the most conservative thinking districts in the United States. Northern Mississippi is tough on Democrats, I know I lived there for a time. This is very progressive and very beneficial to the Labor movement.
